But you used a B4 gameserver to record the demo, so wouldn't it still have the problem then regardless of what slave you used? B8 might indeed fix it._________________Some people play tennis, I erode the human soul.

a bit late, but ettv-b8-pingtest shows very different ping and lagometer from etded.

On the same server, with myself as the only player and plenty of CPU and bandwidth to spare:
etded
~40 ping, only very occasional yellow in upper lagometer
ettv-b8-pingtest
~70 ping, long runs of yellow spikes in the lagometer.

It could be placebo, but b-8-pingtest feels laggier too. b-7 looks/feels like etded.

edit:
reproducable on multiple servers, including dedicated on the same box as the client._________________send lawyers, guns and money
